Effect

Sleepy

Despite the fact that the Kalashnikova strain is dubbed after the famous automatic rifle, its effects are nothing short of mild. The weed has a moderate level of THC of 14.5 to 17.75% and produces a relaxing high that doesn't tend to render smokers couch-locked or useless. That being said, owing to its indica-dominant lineage, its effects build up quickly and last for a long while, making it a great choice for those looking for a soft uplift from tiredness.

Kalashnikova Strain Review - Make Joints, Not Bullets

Kalashnikova Strain Fragrance

The Kalashnikova cannabis has a surprisingly sweet and fruity flavoring profile that carries a rich bouquet of aromas. As soon as you take the first puff, you’ll likely feel delicious tropical notes that will remind you of berries, peach, grapefruit, pineapple, strawberry, pear, and plump. Soon after, you’ll also be hit by the refreshing notes of menthol and eucalyptol, accompanied by classic aromas of spiciness and earthiness that make the whole bouquet more unique.

Reported Effects by Smokers

As was mentioned earlier, the Kalashnikova strain doesn’t hit too strong in the head, despite the fact that its effects come into action almost seconds after you take a toke. Instead, it brings an immediate energy boost and a sense of clear-headed focus. At this stage, most users feel incredible creative energy, which inspires them to tackle some art projects or just helps them finish route tasks during the day. As the state of relaxation builds, you’ll also find yourself becoming more mellow and sleepier as you drift off to a nap, so this weed is best used in the evening.

These effects, combined with its average THC levels, make Kalashnikova an effective tool for treating such health symptoms and conditions as:

  • Stress
  • Pain
  • Fatigue
  • Glaucoma
  • Epilepsy
  • Insomnia
  • Migraines
  • Arthritis
  • Depression
  • Muscle spasms
  • Lack of appetite
  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Phantom limb pain

However, this marijuana isn’t void of negative effects. If smoked in a high dose, it may lead to the following downsides:

  • Dizziness
  • Hunger
  • Headache
  • Paranoia
  • Dehydration
  • Dry eyes
  • Concerns

Growing Tips & Recommendations

The Kalashnikova strain is quite easy to grow. The only thing you’ll need to do after you’ve planted the seeds is to take control of its height, as the plant can grow quite tall, often reaching more than 90 inches. The stage of flowering usually lasts from 65 to 75 days, after which the harvest time comes, taking on average 80 days. When the marijuana starts to bloom, its buds develop dense round olive green nugs with amber hairs and a frosting coating of crystal trichomes.

CBG Cannabigerol, or CBG, is one of the minor cannabis compounds in adult plants. On the other hand, young ones contain a lot of this antibacterial and anti-inflammatory component.
